Mr. Nicholas Johnson

I am an Architecture teacher for CTE with Fort Bend ISD.  I have taught high-school English and Math (Algebra and Geometry), English as a Foreign Language (in Taiwan), 7th grade ELA at DMS, and Woodshop/Engineering at DMS, and now Architecture at DHS and EHS.  I am an avid reader and love getting novel recommendations from my students.  I also consider myslef a life-long learner, always striving to strech myself and gain new skills.  I also enjoy traveling, rock climbing, and working on projects.

 

In Principles of Architecture (PoA), students will gain knowledge and skills needed to enter a career in architecture or prepare a foundation toward a postsecondary degree in architecture, construction science, drafting, interior design or landscape architecture. Safety and career opportunities are included, in addition to work ethics and job-related study in the classroom such as communications; problem solving and critical thinking; Information Technology Applications; systems; occupational safety & health, environmental; leadership and teamwork; ethics and legal responsibilities; employability and career development; technical skills; and reading and developing technical drawings. PoA include the knowledge of the design, design history, techniques and tools related to the production of drawings, renderings, and scaled models for nonresidential or residential architectural purposes.

 

In Architecture Design I (AD1), students will gain knowledge and skills needed to enter a career in architecture or prepare a foundation toward a postsecondary degree in architecture, construction science, drafting, interior design or landscape architecture. AD1 will include the knowledge of the design, design history, techniques and tools related to the production of drawings, renderings, and scaled models for nonresidential or residential architectural purposes. 

In Architecture Design II (AD2), students will deepen their knowledge and skills in architectural design, preparing them for advanced studies or entry-level positions in the field of architecture, construction science, drafting, interior design, or landscape architecture. This course builds upon the foundation established in Architecture Design I, focusing on more complex design challenges and advanced techniques.  Students will also achieve an industry certification in AutoCAD.
